New type of diplo game

[Russia (DoD)]

spasiba!

[Sumeria (DoD)]

I may need a short term sub as I think I need a complete system rebuild. I am struggling on at the moment but it is now taking 20 minutes just to get Civ to run. My internet connection is hardly stable either.

An 18hr timer is a great help as I should be able to knock up a new machine over the weekend but if this one does not survive until then I would be grateful for a volunteer.

Sorry I took so long to play the turn, Robert started the turn while I was at work and I just got home now. I hope this doesn't inconvenience Egypt. You can play your turn now.

Sumeria

I am willing to help out with the subbing.

[Sumeria (DoD)]

Thank you Russia.

If I can keep this poor thing alive to the w/e I should be alright but I will send you a message on PYT with my p/w and immediate aims.

It should be only a short time with an 18hr clock but things can go very badly wrong in system rebuilds.

So, I'm back 8)
It was a terrible holiday. My car broke TWICE on the first day, had to leave it behind in Hamburg. Had to proxy buy a new car which was drive to Hamburg by my father, kids had to wait 5 hours on MCDonalds Hamburg with my wife while I was calling the entire world for help. Later had to return to Hamburg to figure stuff out (Hamburg = 5 hours from home and 5 hours from vacation address).

Then in the 2nd week of my vacation my son was pretty ill.
AND HOLLAND LOST THE FINALS!!!@!%$!@%%!@

Anyway, I'm back home now, fancy new car, son is healthy again and I'm now happy to be vice world champion 8)

Good to see that the #1 and the #2 of this game are at war. Did anybody already notify Rasputin? How are you all?

I cannot get into the game, for some considerable time an 'establihed peer Michael Jackson' has been blocking access, whether he is there blocking or left game in blocked state i cannot tell.

[Robert]

I don't really believe that 'Michael Jackson' is really still in the game (5 hours since he logged in), so I'll just stop and restart the server now. Give it a couple of minutes please.

edit: Game's up again.

[Russia (DoD)]

Michael Jackson is blocking the game again.

[Robert]

Fixed.

[Russia (DoD)]

Fellow DOD players, the game seems to be down.

[Robert]

Looked at the server (from a distance) and it looks ok, new turn started, 16 hours on the clock. playyourturn.com is down though.

[Sumeria (DoD)]

Michael Jackson is blocking the game again.

I am at war with Michael Jackson and do not find this odd at all. He is deliberately logging in but not finishing his turn so that he can login again and act accordingly after I have moved. He has now taken to not logging out at all.

Justice will prevail and Sumeria triumph so everything will be alright in the end.

Please try and avoid indefinite war and play as a diplo game.

And don't forget that civs can not be eliminated until 1000 ADS.

Time to speed the timer a little? Egypt/Rome war has turned to a cold war.
